Derek Lowe was arrested for DUI at around 10 PM Thursday night in Atlanta.
To make matters worse, he allegedly was racing another driver when he was pulled over. After Lowe was stopped, the trooper "detected a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage" and gave him a field sobriety test. Lowe then refused to take a state-administered alcohol test and was also charged with reckless driving and failure to maintain lane. It's unlikely this will affect Lowe's scheduled start Sunday, but we'll update his status when more is known.
